Our solutions span spot, forwards, and complex FX derivatives — including bespoke options strategies — delivered to a fast-expanding international client base.
The Opportunity
We’re seeking a Senior FX Options Dealer to lead strategic client engagements and deliver sophisticated options-based hedging solutions. You’ll report directly into the founders and be instrumental in growing our derivatives desk — taking ownership of structuring, pricing, and trading tailored FX options strategies for corporate clients.

- Engage senior client stakeholders with market insights, scenario modelling, and hedging simulations.
- Collaborate with BDMs to convert qualified meetings into revenue-generating relationships.
- Maintain strong market awareness to advise clients on strategy adjustments and risk management.
- Identify and convert cross-sell opportunities across our full FX and payments product suite.
What We\’re Looking For
- 7+ years’ experience trading or structuring FX Options for corporate clients.
- Deep understanding of FX derivatives, risk modelling, and options pricing.
- Proven track record in driving high-value, revenue-generating relationships.
- FCA Level 3 minimum (Level 4 preferred; sponsorship available).
- Excellent communication skills with an ability to simplify complex products.
- Entrepreneurial, self-directed mindset with a sharp commercial focus.
- Strong client network in the FX, treasury, or corporate hedging space.
What We Offer
- Hybrid working setup (City of London HQ with remote Mondays & Fridays).
- Uncapped earning potential with realistic £500k+ OTE; top performers exceed £750k.
- Hands-on support from founders and direct access to senior leadership.
- Support for further qualifications (e.g., Level 4, derivatives certifications).
- A non-micromanaged, results-driven environment built for high performers.
- Significant headroom for personal and career growth in a scaling business.
